A bit of reduction on the nose but with some air you are greeted with lovely aromas of Hungarian paprika, coriander, bark, baked strawberries, raspberries and pitted red cherries. Medium- to full-bodied with silky, fruit-soaked tannins. A bit of modern woody spice add texture and depth to the bevy of red fruit and berries on the palate. Elegant and lingering. Delicious and will age wonderfully. Sustainable. JS
Pegasus Bay Prima Donna Pinot Noir 2015 - Aged Release
It is deep ruby in colour, with brownish flecks towards the edge. The nose is a feast of vibrant red fruit suggesting raspberry, plum and pomegranate, anchored with a savoury underlay of spicy pepper, cinnamon, mushroom and black olive tapenade. Extended bottle age has given this wine a wonderfully complex and captivating bouquet. The palate is powerfully expressive, with a rich and textured mouth-feel, replete with velvety tannins and a seam of refreshing acidity that delivers a long and satisfying close.

Freshly sliced ripe strawberry with hints of rose stem, baking spices, and bark follow through to a medium body with integrated tannins and a fine and polished finish. Racy and complex. Classy. JS
